Reset Cycle Layer?

Heya!

I'm wondering if there's something I'm missing, or if anyone has a clever work around if I'm not.

I'm setting up pad layers to do round-robin-like cycles, but not in the typical way I see most people using them in the MPC, using velocity/random cycles.

What I'm looking for is a way to reset to the first layer, at will, without having to cycle through the whole stack. I have a sequence of notes that I'd like to cycle through manually with an external controller, but if I miss-trigger the hit, or loose my place in the sequence it would be nice to be able to reset the stack.

Any ideas if this is possible?

I'd like to know this as well, pretty sure Nik Trikakis claims to reset the cycle in one of his Force videos (same program spec as the MPC), but at the time I couldn't work out what he was doing. I think it was this video, sorry haven't got time to watch it through ATM, so it might be one of the others on his channel

Heya,

Thanks for sharing that vid, though he doesn't mention it outright, or in the other vids on his page (I watched the relevant ones...)

It looks as though he just knows the sequence of those bass lines as he's triggering them, and he then starts playing the beat where he knows the 1 will be. Which is what I think I'll have to practice, but I was hoping for a more forgiving way.

PS. Thanks for your own content btw, I've definitely learned a whole lot from your vids!
